Due to air on New Year's Day, Harry Potter 20th Anniversary: Return to Hogwarts will celebrate two whole decades since the first of eight Harry Potter films - Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone - was released.

Emma is joined by former co-stars Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint, where they will re-visit their roles as Hermione Granger, Harry Potter and Ron Weasley.

Sky and NOW released the brand new trailer for the highly-anticipated programme on Monday, December 20, only a month after the reunion was announced.

It shows the cast and crew of the franchise all meeting up again - out of character - back at Hogwarts, and unsurprisingly, things get emotional.

The stars all look over the moon to be in the same place as their former work family after so long, and are frequently seen stating they will always be bound for life through the films.

During a sit-down discussion with Rupert, 33, Emma exclaims that: "It feels like no time has passed and loads of time has passed!"

The star could be seen tearing up as she got emotional over the franchise's impact, saying: "When things get really dark, and times are really hard, there’s something about Harry Potter that makes life richer."

Rupert agreed with his pal, replying: "It’s a strong bond that we’ll always have.
